Watching the Show (Choosing Among Mountain Cat, Tiger Cat, Chubby Cat, White Cat, and Black Cat Forms)

Yukina was still anxiously wondering what had happened, but Airi knew perfectly well.

The world was currently divided into two camps. After the great war between demons and humans decades ago, some countries had chosen to sign the "Sanctuary Treaty" with the three True Ancestors to maintain balance and peace between humans and demons. However, some countries were unwilling to sign the Sanctuary Treaty, with the United States at their head. They believed that only humans were qualified to rule the world, and that all demons should die.

But the countries that had signed the Sanctuary Treaty had greater numbers, not to mention the three True Ancestors. So while the non-signatory nations talked tough, the conflict between the two sides had never reached the level of the old Soviet Union and the United States.

This time, however, things were different.

Airi had killed a U.S. Army lieutenant colonel, and not in secret, either. She had killed her in public. Of course, as Airi had said, everything she had done was fully in line with Demon Hunter regulations. The other side had attacked the Security Force and civilians, then caused an explosion. There was nothing wrong with treating her as a terrorist.

The problem was that Airi was a Demon Hunter, and Demon Hunters were a profession created by countries that had signed the Sanctuary Treaty specifically to maintain demon public order and investigate demon crimes. The United States had not signed that treaty, so naturally it did not recognize the legitimacy of that profession. They were now demanding that the criminal who had killed a great American soldier be handed over to them, while this side certainly would not agree so easily.

Of course, given Japan's lapdog nature, one shout from the United States would normally make them obediently comply.
